Jaune had to be going crazy. Sure, the antics of hormonal teenagers with superpowers were bound to make any normal guy go mad, but Jaune had to draw the line somewhere! He had been in an epic food fight, watched his friends battle some sort of robot on the news; he even lost a game of chess to a dog! He still believed Zwei somehow cheated...
Yet that's not what's ailing him this time. It was the odd trio of girls that were floating around him and his friends in the cafeteria. The problem? Nobody was acknowledging them!
One of them was merely a few inches from his face as he scooped up some mashed potatoes and fed himself. His hand went through her as if she were... a ghost or something.
"I could've sworn he reacted to me..." The girl had white hair similar to Weiss. Yet it was only long enough to reach her shoulders. She apparently had no qualms about invading his personal space, but he sure did. She tilted her head and stared into his eyes with her violet ones. He desperately did his best to not scream out or panic over how a cute, and possibly dead girl was right in his face.
"Well he's not," another one said flatly. "Just because he can't see you doesn't mean I can't. Could you stop staring at him like a freak, Lily?"
"Shut up, Nicole!" she spat. "B-Besides, it's not like I'm the one that stares at him while he sleeps!" The one that went by Nicole appeared to have stammered. Jaune struggled to keep himself contained by the information he'd wished he never learned. Some ghost girl watches him sleep...? Who knows what else she's been watching him do? By the gods... does she know about his guilty pleasure!?
Nicole brushed her brown bangs aside and huffed. "Like I've said, I only wanted a good look at him that one time because he looked familiar, that's all." She spun her head and floated above him. "Celia, throw me a bone here."
The third one named Celia appeared to not have a care in the world. She was in the air as if she was lying down on the ground, acting as lazy to her heart's content. "Hm? Oh... You need my help? Ah, but Nicole... with your sharp wit, I've figured you could handle Lily's childish excuses with ease."
Nicole grinned. "Thank you, Celia," she said with a saccharine tone. Lily on the other hand, pouted.
Lily hovered in front of him again and stared intensely at him. "Could you two morons please help me with this? I swear, he started coughing just as Nicole made that vulgar remark about my... my..."
Nicole's eyebrows perked. "Hunger for his-"
"That is not what I said!" she blurted. "And we're ghosts! We don't have any desires like that anymore!"
"Uh, I can say otherwise. I need a dick in me like, now."
"Nicole!" Lily howled. "B-By the gods, you're horrible. Do you have no sense of tact left in you?"
Nicole started to fiddle with her long hair. She carefully brushed it with care and absentmindedly gave Lily some of her attention. "All I've got left in me is the thirst for satisfaction... that only blondes can quell." She moved her eyebrows in a knowing, suggestive manner. Her dead eyes gave off this sensation of naughtiness that made Jaune short of breath. Why couldn't Jaune meet a woman like this that was alive? "Well? Do you think you could handle what I have packing?"
Jaune let out a less than masculine squeal as Nicole started to unbutton her jacket. His friends all stopped what they were doing and met his gaze with wide eyes. Scratch that, everyone in the cafeteria was staring. The three ghosts did as well, with different expressions. Nicole appeared to be smug, like this was all part of her plan. Lily had a mixed look of curiosity, embarrassment, and... relief? Celia on the other hand, appeared to be snoozing away, even after his scream.
"G-Gotta take a dump!" Jaune mustered. He stood up and bolted for the door. He didn't know where he was going, but he knew he was going to be confronted by those girls eventually. Ought as well get somewhere appropriate for a proper conversation. He didn't want to appear to be going crazy.
Jaune busted into his room and slammed the door shut, still flustered over his eyes almost losing their virginity. That one accident with his sister didn't count... It didn't!
As expected, the girls appeared, phasing through his door like it wasn't even there. Nicole retained her smug look as Lily struggled to wake Celia up. Lily didn't look too pleased though.
"I can't believe you're that indecent."
"What?" Nicole said nonchalantly. "I managed to get him to react to us. Just as you suspected, he really can see us for some reason. It's not like anyone was going to be able to see my goods if he didn't react like that. And if he really couldn't see us, it wouldn't matter. But now we know our little innocent boy has quite the little gift..."
Even though she couldn't physically touch him, Jaune felt a cold chill under his chin, where Nicole traced her fingers. Jaune sat on his bed, leaning backwards as she approached. He was at her mercy.
"So, young man... You are unique. You are aware of our presence. You can communicate with us." She went on with her list as she floated around him like a snake coiling around its prey, ready to sink its fangs. "I know you aren't very familiar with us, but we're quite familiar with you."
Jaune could practically feel her words caressing his ears.
"We'd like to ask for a few favors, if you don't mind?"
Jaune was about to nod, easily ready to comply.
"I'd happily offer the best sight you'll ever see in exchange..." She began to stroke her... womanly areas with her finger. Thankfully, Lily's protests and squawks broke the mood.
Jaune still couldn't help but whimper. So it was true then? His mother was right, it is possible for a woman to hit on a boy...
